If you didn’t get a chance to see Walking With Dinosaurs last year at the Xcel Energy Center (read my Xcel Energy Center Walking With Dinos blog post about it) then you are in luck because it is coming to the Target Center! Walking With Dinosaurs will be in Minneapolis from May 14 - May 17 with various show times.

The Walking With Dinosaurs show features fifteen roaring “live” dinosaurs that walk the stage in life-like fashion. Walking with Dinosaurs is appropriate for young and old fans that want to watch the Dinosaurs journey from birth to extinction. My favorite was the Tyrannosaurus-Rex. It was huge and the skin looked real, you could see it breathe and a sparkle in the eyes. Buy some Walking With Dinosaurs tickets today and see the action for yourself. Here is a Target Center Tickets link.

The Sugarland tour will stop in Minneapolis at the Target Center on April 17th 2009. Sugarland is once again touring in support of their third album, “Love On The Inside.”

Sugarland (Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush) is excited to return to the Twin Cities to entertain Minnesota country music fans with their hit songs like “Want To,” “Stay,” “Baby Girl,” “All I Want To Do,” “Already Gone” and more. Bloggers like Country Girl 102 are excited for Sugarlands appearance and are an example of the loyal country music following here in the Twin Cities.

It’s a Friday night and you can bet Minneapolis will be taken over by cowboy hats and western boots, but it’s only a Target Center half stage set-up because it wasn’t too long ago that Sugarland was the opening act for major country stars.
